<PRE><B>Question 773862</B>
A = b*h/2


60 = x*(2x-1)/2


120 = 2x^2 - x


2x^2 - x - 120 = 0


(x - 8)(2x + 15) = 0


x - 8 = 0 or 2x+15 = 0


x = 8 or 2x = -15


x = 8 or x = -15/2


Toss out the negative result. The only answer left is x = 8


2x-1 = 2*8-1 = 15


So the legs are 8 inches and 15 inches</PRE>
